Specifically, Creators Project reports, some enterprising coders have come up with a way of linking a replicated version of the vintage Pokémon Red game to the movements of a fish in a bowl.

A grid has been superimposed over the fishcam’s feed, with each square now corresponding with the game protagonist’s potential movements or actions. The game and the fishcam are presented in a split screen on the video game streaming site Twitch.

As I type this, more than 23,000 people are watching the, uh, action.

And not a few of them are commenting, in a fast-scrolling chat window that’s part of the Twitch layout. Not surprisingly, they aren’t saying anything interesting — although in general this peanut gallery seems more concerned with the fish than with the gameplay.
